1990's District Plans versus 2000 Population
The maps below shade 1990's districts according to the percent that they are above or below ideal population, based on 2000 Census data. These districts were drawn using 1990 Census population data and needed to be redrawn in the 2001 redistricting effort using 2000 Census figures to be at least approximately equal in population to each other. Ideal population for a district is arrived at by dividing the total population of the state by the total number of representatives, and then mulitplying by the number of representatives in that district.
